True or false? Work is done when an object is moved by a force.

1

True or false? Work uses a different SI unit to energy.

1

Into which form of energy does most energy become when work is done to overcome friction?

1

True or false? Gravitational potential energy is energy stored in an object because of its position in the Earth's gravitational field.

What is the gravitational potential energy of an object of 0.5kg mass if it is lifted by 3m?

1

What is the power developed of an object which, when lifted, gains 60J in 10s?

1

True or false? Kinetic energy is the energy of an object when it is stationary.

1

True or false? In an explosion, the total momentum is zero.

1

True or false? If, in an explosion, two pieces of debris move apart, they will not move with equal and opposite momentum.

1

True or false? A front-end collision increases the momentum of the car.
